Need help looking up 4870x2 Asus top bios.

[Kriztoffer]

*EDITED* Modified 4870x2 Asus TOP bios, one with slight more voltage and stuff.

I can't find the bios I'm looking for. And I'm sure there are someone sitting on this bios:)

the bios should be around 790/915 defult or something.:)

Since we all know the 4870x2 is a dual-gpu card I'll need one master and slave. I got this HIS 4870x2 from release days for cheap, I've had some problems with it, and stuff. so I baked it for 7min, and seems to be running fine now.

But I'd like to get it onto a different bios, stock bios is shit!:)


Best Regards Kriztoffer

Is the TOP asus card a non-reference card?

Here is the links on XS.... I think the files are still being hosted...

Thanks a lot mate!:) I've never flashed a dual gpu vga, scary stuff:D

I'm confused since the dude flashed 2x 4870x2 in crossfire, so there are 4x bios files:s

Make sure of the device location.... other than that, it's no different than single device....

Make sure to dump the old ones first in case of disaster!

True thing:)

To flash new rooms are:

atiflash -f -p 0 asus0.bin
atiflash -f -p 1 asus1.bin

But what are the commands to backup the stock bios?

[FACE]

you should be able to get a dump with a program through windows.... I'm a bit rusty with ati, but I know a windows dump can be done with nvidia cards using nibitor.

[Jor-El]

Using Eva's disk you don't need to worry about commands, this is what you do:

Boot into DOS and using Eva's files on a CD or Dos disk type:

backup0 (this will backup original bios on master);
backup1 (this will backup original bios slave);

update0 (updates master to Asus Top Bios)
update1 (updates slave)

If someday you need to return the cards to stock, using same disks you will type:

restore0
restore1

Simple as that...

Now THAT'S convenience! :thumbsup:

You can dump the original bios from GPU-Z.

The buttom is marked in the pic.

Thanks a lot guys! You are the best:)

Flashed it onto a Asus non-modified TOP bios. Seems like it's running smooth.

Good deal man. I hope this inspires you to bench again. :thumbsup:

Well atleast your still hooked. Just remember that life has its cycles. Sometimes you got the money, and sometimes you don't. The key is keeping your head up and spirits high when the funds aren't there. That's what I've had to do. :good:

Kriz, which files did you end up using to do the flash ?

[FACE]

Been there.... was broke for almost a year..... I'm hoping to get as much fun as I can in before it dries up again.... :ohcrap:

I've semi successfully flashed my bios but when I do atiflash registers my slave as 0 and master as 1. Is there something wrong with my gpu?

Not sure what your question is? The slave should be 1 and the master 0?
